Scribbles About Movies: Mini Movie Reviews

So this is just a random sampling of movies on demand and on tv and Netflix and things like that.

Not Cool- This is Shane Dawson's movie. I'm a fan of his videos on youtube and of corse I wanted to see this movie. This movie was also a part of a reality competition show called The Chair where two first time directors get to direct a movie based on the same material and one will win. Spoilers: This one won. It wasn't like an amazing movie, but it was better than I thought it would be. It was very over the top, a lot like his Youtube Videos... I laughed out loud at least a couple of times. It was enjoyable.

Chelsea Peretti: One Of The Greats- This was so funny. I love Chelsea Peretti on Brooklyn 99 and she was a writer on Parks and Rec, which i love. So yeah. I really love her and I thought this special was really funny. Chelsea and I hate all the same things, I tweeted her that and she favorited it, so we're BFFS now... and yeah. She is one of the greats!

In A World...- I feel like when I watched this movie I wasn't amazed by it, but when I was thinking about it I was like "I like the Girl-powerness of it all, Lake Bell was funny, Demetri Martin was good, Ken Marino was good... they were all really really good." And I guess there isn't a lot I didn't like about it, but it was a little boring. Lake Bell wrote and directed this movie and I liked that too... but idk I wasn't super interested.

The Lego Movie- I didn't love this movie... I liked it, it was alright but it was scary. Like America is so much like the world at the beginning of the movie. We play the same songs on the radio, the same shows on TV all the time... and yeah. It seemed very real. It was also basically 1984 but with Legos... so that is both cool but kind of dark and scary. I pretty much like this movie so much because the next movie will focus more on Wildstyle and girl characters. I think I'll probably relate to that a bit more and I'll like it a lot. Lol. I love Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Charlie Day, Nick Offerman and Alison Brie... so even just them as voice actors makes me happy.


Thats all I have for right now! I may watch a few more movies after finals and review them. There are some good things on Netflix I'm looking at!

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...
